About this color

In digital environments, Crocodile is rendered as rgb(118, 107, 86), where the red channel dominates at 118, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. This muted, medium-toned character adapts well to supporting roles: borders, disabled states, secondary text, and structural UI elements.

For print, Crocodile translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 9M 27Y 54K. A substantial black component (54%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks.
